  • Change default file save name

    I'd like to change the format of the default name assigned to save files.

    Reason: To make it easier to identify individual games.

    Example: A typical save file is named

    Petek AD-1656.CivBeyondSwordSave

    I'd like the file name to default to (for example)

    Petek of the Incans AD-1656.CivBeyondSwordSave

    That is, to incorporate the Civ's name into the file name. Can this be done, and, if so, how?

    Thanks,

    Petek

    As far as I know, it cannot be done, without going into the C++ (if that's even possible)... Solver might be able to tell you.

      Thanks. Requiring C++ would be way beyond my skills.

      This actually seems to be a retrogression from SMAC (which is from where I come). In SMAC, an example of the default save file name is

      Petek of the University, 2167.SAV
